Many Happy Returns

Stamps: Teeny Trees (WM); Big Deal Alphabet (SU)
Ink: Bahama Blue, Tangelo, Dandelion, Morocco (Memento)
Font: Zag, Coolvetica, Ecuyer Dax
Other: Citrus Stack (DCWV); corner chompers; unknown ribbon
Good morning folks.  I woke up this morning inspired.  That hasn't happened in ages, so thank you Muse & Marion Vagg:
 
 
I was most inspired by the colour scheme, & the ribbons behind the main image give a nod to the stripes of washi on Marion's card.
 
So I have been shut away in my craft room making hay while the sun shines.
The candles are the 'l' from the alphabet set (the lighter ones are stamped off Bahama Blue), & the flames are graduated sizes of tree-top.  I made the sentiment using Silhouette Studio, & have figured out how to save it in a different format, so here it is below as a PNG if you want to use it:
I even managed to use some paper from a DCWV stack that I've had for at least 3 years.  Love it when I can use up old stuff.

  4. Wow, wow and wow again! I love your interpretation of the muse card and linking it to flames was a genius idea.

    I've been trying to save designs in studio as image files but haven't managed it - can you share the trick?
